Reg ShiverickSome interesting sessions. The music in between is too loud and annoying. How about some quiet so we can think about what we’ve heard. And I don’t see Wi-Fi here.

About This Conference

SaaStr 2023 in San Francisco

SaaStr 2023 SF continued the tradition of assembling the world's largest B2B SaaS community in the San Francisco Bay Area. With 10,000+ attendees, the event founded by Jason Lemkin brought together founders, operators, investors, and executives for three days of tactical content. The Bay Area's deep SaaS ecosystem — from early-stage startups in SOMA to enterprise giants on Sand Hill Road — served as the backdrop for the industry's most attended gathering.

AI Revolution and SaaS Transformation

SaaStr 2023 sessions captured the early impact of the generative AI wave on B2B SaaS. Speakers shared how companies were integrating LLMs into products, rethinking pricing for AI features, building AI-native startups, and defending against AI-driven disruption. Alongside AI, sessions covered capital-efficient growth strategies, sales-led vs. PLG debates, and operational playbooks for the $1M-$100M ARR journey.

Founder-Investor Matchmaking at Scale

SaaStr 2023 offered the largest concentration of SaaS-focused investors at any single event. Hundreds of VCs, from pre-seed to growth equity, participated in structured office hours, braindates, and curated 1:1 meetings. Jason Lemkin's community-first approach ensured that even first-time attendees could access meaningful investor conversations, making SaaStr a critical fundraising venue for founders at every stage.
